Ryzen 7 4700U vs Core i7-8086K comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i7-8086K performs better than the Ryzen 7 4700U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 7 4700U in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Ryzen 7 4700U has slightly more cores with 8 cores whereas the Core i7-8086K has 6 cores. Despite this, the Core i7-8086K has more threads than the Ryzen 7 4700U. Our comparison shows that the Core i7-8086K has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 4700U. Also, the Core i7-8086K has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 4700U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-8086K CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 4700U has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i7-8086K. Despite this, the Core i7-8086K has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 7 4700U.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. For instance, the Ryzen 7 4700U has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
